Populating Repository

[Q Beukes]

Hey,

I have about 1gb of dependencies in my local repository. I recently
switched to a nexus repository and have been filling it up slowly as I
build on machines which don't have all the dependencies I have. Before
this I just shared my repository and had the other machines mount it,
but wish to fill up the Nexus repo so it can be used in the future.

Though it feel unnecessary to have to redownload 1GB of data just for
this purpose. Isn't there a way to deploy all my dependencies into
nexus, preferably bulk?

We have some tools to assist in this:
https://docs.sonatype.com/display/NX/Nexus+Command+Line+Tools

Let me just give one caveat: Those tools will separate snapshots and
releases and get rid of the metadata that doesn't belong in a local
repo. However, the best practice is to separate your internal
artifacts from proxies etc. These tools won't do that for you. So if
you know that everything came from Central, then you're probably safe
just removing your company artifacts from your local repo and then run
the rest through the CLI instructions.

In summary, I would just let Nexus populate itself that way you are
sure that everything is configured correctly.
